the Socialist Party is the only true Anti
Poverty society.
This socialist League Is formed to advance
the doctrines OF the Socialist Party and Its
principles are as follows:
The main cause ofall misery, poverty, vice
and crime lies In the environment which sur
rounds the individual. The only way TO
abolish these evils Is to change the eviron-
ment. This environment consists OF the
competitive wage system under which a
privileged class control and monopolize the
natural resources, the tools OF production,
the mediums OF exchange, transportation
and communication. The way to change
this environment Is to make all these things
the cooperative property OF the whole people
and to have the government own, operate
and control them for the benefit Of all, ut
cost.
We avow these as our principles and invite
the cooperation OF all men and women who
love their country and who are, rs scientists,
devoted to the emancipation OF all Human.

AS PBoS LER.--This gentleman,
a resident Of Fragrant Hills. in the
empire Of China, was graduated at
Yale College few days ago, and de-
hvered an GRAFTON which New York
Tribune correspondent says was the
best OF those delivered by the gradu-
ating class. He condemned the ex.
elusive policy which prohibited Chi
nese immigration, and contended
that such a policy should have nc
footing in America.
Dir. Yam Phon Lee NAV have
been diIigent student at Yale, but
his acquaintance with the subject o.
Chinese immigration to America mus
be very superficial. II he has taker
himself as the typical native of China
as a fair representative Of Chimes,
immigrants, il is no wonder that h,
opposed expulsion, nor is it strang,
that be was frequently interrupted b,
applause No one objects, so far a
we know, to Chinese students or trav
elers or men OF leisure coming to th,
United States; nor, indeed, is Their,
or has there been any objection t
Chinese OF any kind simply because
they were Chinese. Had the incom
ing horde been of any other race o
color, and possessing the same unde
sirabis qualities, the objections woul
have been just the same and Just a
ssrenuousiy urged.-ls. F. Chronicl,
